Congratulations, Graduates, on the completion of this critical step in your life-plans for
vocation and service.

One of the most important moments in your life is this period of undergraduate studies.
While I know many of you view this educational experience as opening a door for
vocational opportunities, it really is a time of building character, shaping one's
worldview and coming to understand the place of Christ in your life.

You will have many opportunities of upgrading your skills, refining your talents and
honing the techniques required for vocational success. It is my hope, however, that this
time at Tyndale has been about making you into the kind of person who is now better
prepared to face life.

For much of my life I have been guided by this verse: King David in the rebuilding of the
nation recruited a group from the tribe of Issachar whom the historian records. They had
an understanding of the times and knew what Israel ought to do. Their ability to
contribute to the development and management of the nation was predicated first on their
ability to assess their surrounding world. It was on the basis of this skill that they could
then lay out a strategy of acfion.

The effective servant learns to understand the wider horizon and then decide what it is
that is important.

I'm proud of your hard work and commitment to completion. Now as you walk out into
the world of opportunity, know that at all times and in all places the Lord walks with you.
There is nothing in your life that passes His observation or interest. Not only is all of life
the Lord's, but also He has given His life so that we might excel, walking in the light of
His wisdom and grace. BHiHP ¥

Congratulations, and God's very best for you.

Brian C. Stiller
President

The Sweet-man's Address

The end ot rhe school ve;ir is always birtersweet:
on one hand we all look torward to the warmth,
rest from study, and activities of the summer
while graduates anticipate new beginnings, but
on the other, endings are difficult - saying good-
bye to friends, finding rhe always elusi\e summer
job, bidding tarewell to the stability and richness
that life at Tyndale brings. It's like that tor me too.

A^ much as I'm excited about a summer ot vaca-
tion, baseball, and sun, I always feel a sense ot re-
gret and sorrow as I watch students pack up their

rooms anci move out tor four months or for good.

And yet, through all the gooci and bad, we can re-
view the past eight months knowing that God has

been with us ever>' step ot the way.

What always surprises me about academic years at Tyndale is the sheer speed ot passuig time.
Wasn't it only yesterday that student leaders and frosh gathered for a retreat at Muskoka Woods.' I
srill haw vivid memories of the utter beauty of the Muskokas and Goei's wondrous creation, racing
around the track with our cardboard and skateboard cars, singing Happy Birthday to a very shy but
pleased David Eyre, and listening in awe to the words of wisdom and vulnerability of Dr Davis and
Professor Davey. So many memories from the very beginning. Remember too all the excellent
chapels: Sundar Krishnan, Brux>' Cavey, Preston Manning, Gordon Fee, Victor Shepherd, Michael
Coren, and Mark Noll.'' 1 am continually grateful for the creativity, commitment, and excellence of
all our chapel musicians and vocalists, especially for all that jay, Stephanie, and Peter brought to
chapels this year. It's really unbelievable how much talent we have here at Tyndalel 1 know from
speaking wirh many of you how deeply and otren God reached into your hearts during rhe.se and
other times. His good work was evideiit ever^'where this year!

We had an amazing year in the dorm too. From western suppers and midnight pancakes, to the
Geriatric Night, Ernie's videos and announcements and times of worship and prayer and, of
course, NORWALK, 2002-2003 will always be remembered. Our RAs were grace-filled servants
and their dedication was inspiring: without Erin, Erika, jess, Jill, Kary, Melissa, Steph, Charlie,
Chris, Greg, Justin, Ian, Lloyd, and Sean our year would not have been so rich. And there were so
many times through rhe year that I would stand back in absolute awe of the job and commitment
of our Student Council leaders: Lindsay, Al, Sara, Ira, Sanda, Cindy, and Crystal along with all the
other members were always thinking ot how to make this place even betrcr tor every College
student. I can't miagine what we would have done without these beautiful men and women ot
God. We were constantly blessed by their work and presence.

So from September with its melted ice cream to April and the fantastic Spring Banquet, it's been a
good, good year. God has met us here and we have moved more deeply into the lite oi Christ
through the Spirit's movement. Naturally because life is life there will be many new and excitmg
rhings that will come our way next year at Tyndale, bur what will never change it that you've been
part of something very special this year. And tor that, let's give thanks to our God: Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit for His abundance, grace, and tor this commLmiry...Amen.

Thankyou Tyndale for a great year, thanks to Craigers
for your help and to Al for proof-reading and helping
out with it in other ways (any mistakkes, blame Al!)

During the Norwalk season, I met Hogan instead of writing exams
